Pinch of parsley, finely chopped
Pinch of fresh thyme, finely chopped
Pinch of fresh rosemary, finely chopped

2. In a medium bowl, combine the parsley, thyme and rosemary.
3. Grate the oranges and lemon peel and set the oranges and lemon aside.
4. Add the peels to the herb mixture and toss until combined. Rub the herb mixture over the skin of the turkey.
